Eight Stocks Decline On Wide Front In Fair Volume New York, Jan. 21 W) Stock market resistance levels were soft ened a bit today with a recurrence of nressure on iteels, aircraft and Industrial blue chips and losses of tractions to a point or more were established over a wide front. Vol ume was around 600,000 shares. One of the firmer share perform ers was Patlno mines which edged up a point or so at one time. The stock has been prominent lately In connection with reports of enlarged shipments of tin from Its mines In Bolivia to the United States to make up in part for supplies cut off by war in the Orient. DuPont and J. C. Penney slipped to new 1941-42 lows. Others In the minus division Included U. S. Steel, Bethlehem, Chrysler, DouBlas, Unit ed Aircraft, American Telephone, Westlnghouse, Dow Chemical, du Pont, Union Carbide, Eastman, Standard Oil (NJ), Southern Pa cific, Southern Railway and Santa Fe. Bonds yielded some of their gains scored earlier In the week. Rubber Plants Tested in Oregon Corvallls, Ore., Jan. 21 (U.R) Milky Juice plants readily grown In Ore gon will be tested at Oregon State College as possible sources of rub ber, Q. R. Hyslop, head of the plant Industries department, said today. Hyslop disclosed that rubber con tent of many of these plants was high around maturity, perhaps high enough to be of economic im portance. The department planned to set out a number of newly milky Juice annuals and perennials for testing. Hyslop had Just returned from Washington where he conferred with officials In charge of rubber plant Investigations In the bureau of plant Industry. He said that guayule, now grown In the south west, was considered the most likely source of domestic rubber supply. Experts discounted Russian re ports that a dandelion known as kok-sagyz was a good source of rub ber. Tests have shown the dandelion produces only 30-50 pounds of rub ber an acre Instead of the much higher total carried in early reports. Such a low yield, Hyslop said, would not be suitable in this coun try. Salem Markets Compiled from reports of Sa lem dealers, for the fuldanet I Capital Journal readers, (Revised dally).

"Enemy losses were very heavy," the communique said. "Our casual ties were relatively moderate." Surprise Raid Far north of the main battle sec tor, in upper Luzon Island, the war department said a guerrilla band of Gen. Mac Arthur's forces staged a surprise raid on a Japanese air field at Tuguegarao, killing 110 enemy troops and putting 300 others to flight. Coincidental, the Russian army newspaper Red Star estimated that about 6,000 American and 32,000 Fil ipino native troops were opposing 100,000 Japanese In Luzon. An official Tokyo broadcast as serted that allied warships had ent ered the critical battle of Singapore even as Japan's navy minister, Vice Admiral Shigetaro Shimada, boast ed that the Japanese navy "virtually commands the Pacific from Malaya and the Indies to the west coast of the United States." On the same exultant note, Pre mier Gen. Hidekl Tojo asserted that Japan planned "increasingly vigor ous operations" in the Pacific and would continue fighting until the United States and Britain were "brought to their knees." Japanese front line dispatches said battle flags of the rising sun were advancing southward along the Malayan west coast "in spite of gun fire from enemy ships" In the strait of Malacca, which lives between the Malay peninsula and the Dutch East Indies island of Sumatra. British military quarters conceded that Japanese troops apparently arriving in small boats which hug ged the shore continued to land along the Malay coast during the past 24 hours, striking ahead of the main Japanese invasion army to harass the British west flank. Strong Japanese pressure also was reported against a British commun ications highway running southeast from the Muar river sector, 90 miles north of Singapore, where British Australian and imperial Indian troops were struggling to halt the main Japanese onslaught. It was in this sector that Tokyo asserted 20,000 British were trap ped. Peach Orchards Weather-Damaged Jefferson, Jan. 21 It Is reported that the recent freezing weather and silver thaw have greatly damaged the peach orchards In this locality and nearby districts. Many of the older trees were broken at the trunks, while many limbs were split off. Some of the growers think the blossom buds were far enough along to be frozen. Considerable damage has also been done in the prune orchards. The walnut orchards, as a whole, escaped with less damage than the fruit orchards. lower at $10 down; mostly $10.40 down on weighty sausage offerings; vealers firm at $15 down.

Sugar Sales Curtailed By Salem Retailers Sugar sales are being cut in Salem by retailers due to a rationing order which has gone into effect by the govern ment as to jobbers who have been restricted to purchases of sugar Dased on the amounts they' handled during the year 1940, cording to information which has reached the hands of grocers here. To date 10 rationing order has been received directly affecting re tailers, but by the regulation of the amounts which can be handled by jobbers it is put up to the retailers to make as equitable a distribution of the sugar among customers as possible. W. J. Buslck, well known local grocer, stated today that the gro cers feel generally there will be enough sugar for needs of the con sumers unless the consumers get panicky and attempt to hoard by buying available amounts from one retail store to another. He stated the grocers feel there will be no necessity for such attempts at hoarding If the consumers continue to use their customary amounts of sugar without endeavoring chisel ling methods such as that mention ed. Local retail stores have curtailed their sales down to a maximum of 25 pounds to a customer and in some cases curtailments are said to be as low as 10 pounds to a cus tomer. Outside of the restriction on what sugar they are able to get the re tailers are working under no govern ment Inhibitions, as yet, but it is considered likely if consumers fall to cooperate the rationing plan as to retailers may be put Into effect, and if it is lt will probably be vig orously enforced. They point out, it is as much to the interest of the consumer, or more In fact than to the dealer, not to attempt to hoard by devious methods. Jobbers, state the retailers, are closely restricted which means they have to parcel out to their retail store customers only the amounts used by them in 1940, or make such adjustments as will make the sugar go around In the most equitable way possible. Silverton Caffle Killed by Dogs Paul Marnach, dog license en forcement officer, reports the first Instance on file in his office of cattle being slain by dogs, Ike Seism, route 2, Silverton, suffering the loss of two eight-months-old calves and injury to a cow due to an at tack from two dogs. Marnach stated that one dog, half husky and half collie, was caught in the act of killing one of the calves and was himself killed on the spot. The other dog, said to have also been a mongrel, got away but in vestigation by Marnach identified the dog which he killed yesterday, and the owner of the dog recom pensed Seism for his lost animals. While Marnach says this is the first instance of cattle being killed in this county by dogs as far as his records show, he states there was a similar one In Yamhill county some time ago. Glrla Need Yarn Salem Heights The Camp Fire Girls make a request for wool yarn or knit garments that could be sal vaged and re-knit Into needed ar ticles for relief work. Jersey Club Meets Jan. 31 The annual meeting of the Ore gon Jersey Cattle club will be held at the Marlon hotel, Salem, Sat urday, January 31. Dr. U. G. Du bach, dean of men at Oregon State college, will be the principal speak er of the day, giving his views on world conditions and their relations to purebred cattle and the dairy In dustry In a talk entitled, "My Country." The meeting will commence at 10 o'clock with current and future business discussions, committee re ports and yearly accomplishment reports from the various county clubs. Walter C. Leth, Dallas, will preside as toastmaster during the banquet and entertainment, and will introduce the guests and speak ers of the program.

All those Interested In Jersey activities, PFA members and 4-H members are cor dially Invited to attend the meet ing and banquet. Consolidation of Milk Routes Talked Officers of the Milk Producers' and Distributors' association at a meeting last night gave considera tion to consolidation of milk routes for conservation of tires and also reached a decision to recommend every other day delivery to the as sociation. The ultimate answer to the tire problem may be found in horse drawn delivery wagons, it was stat ed. They urge that people search their homes for milk containers to turn over to the dairymen as a shortage of bottles threatens. Consolidation of milk routes, it was pointed out, would probably eliminate a large amount of route duplication.

DtmuJ JAYNE 8 VEBUlfl'CEl Allowances for Families of Enlisted Men Washington, Jan. 21 W) War and navy department support "in principle" was claimed by interested legislators today for proposed le gislation requiring enlistment in the armed services to allot $15 of their monthly pay to dependent wives and children, with the gov ernment matching or bettering that with an additional allowance to families. Such was the system adopted six months after the United States entered the World war in 1917. Be fore the armistice, about 400,000 men were making allotments to re latives struggling in the economic backwash of the war. Rep. Edmlston (D-W.Va.) intro duced the new legislation after conferences with leaders of veterans' organizations. He said today that service officials favored its objec tive, but questioned its government allowances, in some instances much higher than those in the 1917 act. The measure would cover regulars as well as selectees. The West Virginian said the need for the legislation would be ac centuated if the government decides that adequate manpower cannot be obtained without tightening draft regulations on dependency defer ments. Selective service officials have ex pressed hope that present liberal rules governing dependents can be maintained. Nevertheless, they have ordered re-examination of the 7, 500,000 registrants excused because of claims that they are supporting one or more relatives with a view to ascertaining whether such de pendencies still exist or whether "convenient marriages" were invol ved.

Soybeans and Corn Advance Chicago, Jan. 21 (U.PJ Strength In corn and soy beans sparked a mod est advance in grain futures today. Soy beans rose nearly 4 cents a bushel at their tops with the July delivery reaching a new seasonal peak. Closing bean prices showed net gains of 3 to 3'i cents a bushel; wheat was up 71 to 1; corn up l' to 1; oats up Vt to ; and rye up IU to Soy beans gained steadily as light offerings forced buyers to bid prices up. An announced increase of 1 cent a bushel In the asking price for government owned corn streng thened corn futures. Other grains developed ft firm tone under the Influence of corn and soy beans, but gains were restricted by reports of ft deadlock In the conference on the price control bill. A modest advance in wheat fu tures attracted light hedge selling that knocked prices off a bit. Trad ers said some buying of corn rep resented spreading operations with oats and wheat.
